Alex Taylor attends annual exercise science industry night at Lasell University

Jan 19

Alex Taylor, a Lasell University student from Newport (03773), attended the institution’s annual exercise science industry night, “Change Makers: Shaping Lives and Cultivating Diversity and Inclusion Through Health, Human Performance, and Creative Expression.”

The virtual conference invited the students to “come as you plan to be” – that is, to attend as their future selves, envisioning where they might be in 10 years and selling that narrative as a means of networking with current industry professionals.

More than 170 attendees attended the keynote panel featuring Daryl Nelson, director of organizational development for the New England Patriots; Kaleena Ladeairous, head coach and owner, Just Fitness CrossFit; Sandra Ciavarella, executive well being coach and consultant; Lenna Salbashian, a licensed mental health counselor and art therapist and CEO of Creatful; and Nate Robitaille, professional football player. Lasell University Adjunct Professor Tim Hanway and graduate student Alahna Mild ’22 G’23 moderated the event.

“Industry nights help our students enter the workplace well skilled, knowledgeable, and ready to help the future well-being of others,” said Cris Haverty, dean of Lasell’s School of Health Sciences. The goal of the evening, according to Hanway, was to explore the holistic landscape of human betterment beyond just fitness or exercise science and gain “insight into the power of human movement, innovation, and creative expression to change lives.”
